Young Master in Flower City

Chapter 150: Hauling the Pig Trough a Thousand Miles—For Whom?



Jiang Ya's beautiful eyes sparkled with surprise. She originally thought Xiao Tianyu was coming, but it turned out to be Luo Bing. Moreover, Luo Bing was carrying a lot of nutritional supplements, which puzzled Jiang Ya even more.

"Luo Bing, you…" Jiang Ya stammered.

"What, not happy to see me?" Luo Bing said with a slight smile. Jiang Ya immediately snapped out of it: "Welcome, welcome… How could I not be happy? Please come in and have a seat!" It was just unexpected.

Actually, Jiang Ya wanted to ask what kind of wind blew Manager Luo here, to make sure it was to see my mother without other ideas?

"You're here!" At this moment, a voice came from the kitchen, and soon, a woman in her forties came out. Though dressed plainly, she carried herself gracefully. She had just recovered from a severe illness, so her complexion was a bit pale.

This woman was Jiang Ya's mother, Shen Fang.

Xiao Tianyu, a woman?

The first time Shen Fang saw Luo Bing, she felt confused. She originally thought if suitable, she would prepare to… But seeing Luo Bing, she was befuddled. She never expected the visitor to be a rather handsome young lady; it was quite awkward.

"Hello, Auntie!" Luo Bing greeted respectfully. Shen Fang immediately responded: "You're already here, why bring gifts."

"I heard Auntie wasn't feeling well, so I specifically brought some gifts to pay my respects. I hope Auntie won't mind!" Luo Bing put down the nutritional supplements with a gentle smile. Shen Fang quickly said: "I owe my life to you!"

With that, Shen Fang continued: "Don't just stand there; come sit down, Xiao Ya, pour some water!"

"…"

"…"

The two girls were instantly dumbfounded, staring at Shen Fang, while Shen Fang glared at Jiang Ya: "Xiao Ya, why are you still standing there, go pour water for Mr. Xiao, no, Miss Xiao!"

Miss Xiao?

Bang~

Jiang Ya's legs trembled, almost sitting on the ground. Miss Xiao? I just want to ask my dear mother, who did you mistake Luo Bing for, Xiao Tianyu? Xiao Tianyu is clearly a man's name, how could it be a woman.

But on second thought, Jiang Ya understood. Although Xiao Tianyu funded my mother's rescue, Jiang Ya never told Shen Fang whether Xiao Tianyu was male or female, and today Shen Fang just invited Xiao Tianyu for dinner, now with a guest at home, naturally thought it was Xiao Tianyu.

Actually, Shen Fang was surprised too, wondering why someone would give such a pretty girl a man's name.

At this moment, Luo Bing was also muddled by Shen Fang's words. Am I… Xiao Tianyu? Would I be that jerk?

So, Luo Bing awkwardly smiled: "Auntie, you've misunderstood, I'm not Mr. Xiao, I'm Luo Bing, Jiang Ya's colleague, and I heard from Jiang Ya you just recovered, so I came to visit!"

Hearing this, Shen Fang was completely stunned. She glanced at Jiang Ya, saw Jiang Ya nod, and that awkwardness in her heart made her immediately smile and say: "So, you're Jiang Ya's manager, sorry, I mistook you just now. Please have a seat!"

"Auntie, you're too polite, why don't I go help in the kitchen!"

"I can't trouble you!" Shen Fang came from a relatively poor background, and the fact that Jiang Ya could work at Qingcheng International made Shen Fang feel exceedingly proud. Now that a high-ranking figure from Qingcheng International had come, she felt nervous, let alone asking Luo Bing to help in the kitchen.

What puzzled Shen Fang, however, was why a manager would personally come to visit.

Luo Bing had known after finishing work yesterday that Xiao Tianyu was coming to Jiang Ya's house at six. That's why she rushed over. She was still upset about the Celestial Universe Hotel matter.

Ten minutes later, a variety of dishes were set on the table, probably dozens of dishes. Though they were simple, they were clean and refreshing, with a fragrant aroma, which evidently showed Shen Fang's cooking skills were quite good.

However, Xiao Tianyu had not yet arrived, now the meal was ready, and Luo Bing was here, to eat or not to eat.

If not eating, it would seem disrespectful to Luo Bing.

If eating, Xiao Tianyu hadn't come yet, and Xiao Tianyu appeared to be the main guest.

This made Shen Fang start to feel troubled, secretly hoping Xiao Tianyu would arrive soon.

Luo Bing naturally saw through Shen Fang's thoughts, so she smiled and said: "Auntie, don't worry about me. Let's wait until that guy arrives and we'll eat together!"

Upon hearing this, Shen Fang looked at Jiang Ya, whom Jiang Ya nodded.

Bang bang~

At this moment, the sound of knocking on the door was heard, Jiang Ya's eyes showed joy, which was caught in Luo Bing's eyes, it seems Jiang Ya also likes that jerk.

"Xiao Ya, quickly open the door!"

"Hmm!" Jiang Ya nodded, opened the door, and saw a young man around six feet tall standing outside, wearing casual clothes. Though simply dressed, he exuded an air of elegance, especially his face, which was almost perfect.

Jiang Ya's beautiful eyes stared at Xiao Tianyu, slightly shy.

As for Shen Fang, she was also shocked by Xiao Tianyu's handsome appearance, wondering how could someone be so charming, even thinking Jiang Ya wouldn't match Xiao Tianyu at all.

"What, invite me for dinner, planning to leave me standing outside?" Xiao Tianyu said casually.

With that, Jiang Ya was stunned for a moment but then heard Shen Fang speak: "Xiao Ya, why are you standing there, invite Mr. Xiao in!"

"Oh!" Jiang Ya nodded and gestured for him to enter. However, as Xiao Tianyu had just entered, he noticed a very familiar figure, but merely glanced before ignoring it.

Actually, Xiao Tianyu felt speechless inside; this woman is really haunting, wherever I go, there she is.

Being ignored by that jerk?

Seeing Xiao Tianyu just glance at her indifferently, Luo Bing felt slightly angry. If it weren't for Shen Fang's presence, she might have exploded like lightning already. Having looked at her, touched her, and now ignoring her — that's quite jerky.

Did I carry pig troughs for a thousand miles, to feed whom? All of it for your good, yet you ignore me.

"You know each other?" Shen Fang asked.

"We know each other!" Luo Bing answered, but before her words fell, Xiao Tianyu suddenly said: "Don't know!"

"…" This guy must be deliberately trying to embarrass me, Luo Bing's coldness exuded, thinking what happened at the hotel, being completely exposed, and now him saying he doesn't know me—it's infuriating.

Shen Fang then glanced at Jiang Ya, clearly confused by their words, Jiang Ya said: "Tianyu works at Qingcheng International too, and he's in the same department with me and Luo Bing!"

In that case, they know each other?

Shen Fang contemplated inwardly, not understanding why Xiao Tianyu said he didn't know.

"Hello, Auntie!" Xiao Tianyu said, breaking the ice.

"You came empty-handed, with no sincerity!" Luo Bing rolled her eyes. Shen Fang smiled and said: "Mr. Xiao's visit alone is a great honor for me, Mr. Xiao, please take a seat!"

"…" Luo Bing was speechless.

"Has your health improved?" Xiao Tianyu asked Shen Fang, still not paying attention to Luo Bing. Shen Fang replied in one breath: "I'm well-recovered now. I'm really grateful to Mr. Xiao. Oh, yes, the surgery fee of twelve million yuan, I will definitely return it to you, but as for the deadline…"
